Let's be real about these All Blacks

That's what I said. You take the whole game in context though and England only got close due to a 14 point try, so your idea of 'should' is wrong.

They have much to be humble about - but not as much as most.

Despite defeat in Paris, the real reason the All Blacks are feeling upbeat

So true play the game and the ref no matter what level, rules are rules, don’t forget that, respect whatever ref you have, it’s disgusting not to. They are human and have feelings and will know if they ….might have got it wrong. Game is so, so fast. I couldn’t be a ref as it’s so fast

Respect guys, and ladies

No chance of that. But when you're not wrong you're often just confused.

Looks like the refs want some tv time this week. We’ve had about 2 mins of play and 4 mins of refereeing.

I do in that sense yes. I just think when it gets to 'don't stand out, toe the line', team first becomes a poor excuse for anti-individualism. If this 10 feels aggrieved and believes in himself, he should have the right to say it and put his money where his mouth is. That said, you can't fault Galthie's response. Very gallant gallic insouciance. ( I too live in France) :)

Why England's defence of the realm has crumbled without Felix Jones

He was Defence coach with Castres when they won the French Championship and they had the best defence in the competition so he does have credibility, he also has coached Oyonnax with limited resources to beat teams in the top 14 with much bigger budgets so the idea that he has no credibility is ignorant and incorrect, whether he will turn out to be a success is something that nobody knows however the RFU didn't just just say to Borthwick pick your friend, he had been on their radar for at least 5 years or more.

I agree. I watched a backrow of Pollock, Pearson and the lesser Willis run around in an A game. Imagine the depth of quality that is required to leave those 3/4 out of a squad.

Why England's defence of the realm has crumbled without Felix Jones

As Nick has said I think the evidence is that the English players did buy in very well indeed. Towards the end of FJ's tenure, England's defence was superb and getting better every game. As soon as he left it went to pot. I don't think the players should shoulder the blame for what seems to be a lot of mixed messages coming from the coaches. We're seeing our defensive organisation looking ragged from the first quarter, it's not an issue with fitness or player buy-in. I know England are serial underperformers but pulling on the white shirt is a lifelong dream and means everything to those blokes.

I feel sorry for Joe. He was a Bristol legend... But he's woefully under qualified. The fact that Borthwick has appointed an old mate who's never been employed as a defensive specialist and is head coach of a D2 side with a poor defensive record reflects very badly upon him. Felix Jones was saving Borthwick's blushes, now the wheels are coming off. Our paucity of attacking creativity was masked by defensive prowess. Now we're exposed and relying on Marcus Smith to try and make the scoreboard respectable.
